Which SAN to choose for small office virtualization (EMC vs HP)?

Question

NAS

The organization currently has a park of three servers:
1. HP DL 360 G5 - it runs sql server + 1C server + mail server
2. HP DL 360 G8 - terminal server + Asterisk
3. HP Microserver for backups and file archive
for the second terminal began to be missed, we thought about a more powerful HP DL 360 G9 with more powerful processors, migrate sql to G8 and at the same time transfer data to the shelf for reliability, reducing downtime in case of failure and to simplify further growth.
load on sql + 1c - about 100 active users, the databases all together are about 10GB, it is planned that
about 40 people use the Terminal Server ,
i.e. the load is not that big.
So far, 2 options have been proposed and are being considered:
1. since the HP server, then the HP MSA 2040 DC shelf
2. EMC VMX 5300
budget for the HP DL 360G9 + San server is allocated in the amount of 1.5 Mln.r. +/- (i.e. about 600 per server and 900 per shelf with disks)
the need for virtual machines at the moment is about 2TB
, in principle, you can probably stop at these two models
, it's embarrassing that the EMC model is quite old (2010), but they promised " as a gift" all licenses for it, and also like disks should be cheaper than HP ones,
which is what we would like from storage systems - so that virtual machines are stored on it and can be launched from any server (we use vmware) and the ability to accelerate frequently requested data in some cache.
what I would like to hear - since we have not encountered storage systems before - I would like to get a vector in which direction to move and dissuade or vice versa campaign for the shelf from EMC.
while purely subjective I want to take hp,. (the question is, will the shelf require any licenses from frequently used functions and what contribution do they make to the budget?)
